The Rogue Invitational is this weekend
If you're looking for something to watch this weekend, some of the best CrossFit athletes in the world have headed to Scotland for the 2026 Rogue Invitational.
Next to the CrossFit Games, the Rogue Invitational is one of the biggest competitions in the sport of CrossFit, bringing together some of the world's top athletes to go head to head in a series of events that test their strength, endurance, skill, and overall fitness.
My family and I were lucky enough to attend the very first Rogue Invitational back in 2019, held at Rogue HQ in Columbus, Ohio. And let me tell you, Rogue knows how to put on a show. Next to the CrossFit Games events we attended in Carson, California, the Rogue Invitational was one of the best CrossFit events we've ever been to. The atmosphere, the athletes, the competition, and the overall experience were incredible. Rogue really does know how to put on a world class event.
One of my favourite parts of the Rogue Invitational has always been the Legends Division. There's just something special and fun about seeing the OG CrossFit Games athletes take to the competition floor together again. Athletes who helped build the sport into what it is today, back out there competing, laughing, having fun, and reminding everyone just how incredibly fit they still are.
Back in 2019, the Legends Division was much bigger, with more events, and it was easily one of my favourite parts of the entire weekend. I wish they'd bring even more of that back.
Whether you follow the competitive side of CrossFit closely or simply enjoy seeing what some of the fittest people on the planet are capable of, the Rogue Invitational is always worth watching.
It's also pretty cool to watch movements we do regularly in class being performed by some of the very best athletes in the world. The weights might be a little different, and the speeds might be a whole lot faster, but it's still CrossFit.
The weekend also features some of the world's strongest men and women competing in Strongman events, so there's plenty of impressive strength on display.
If you've never watched the Rogue Invitational, this is a great weekend to tune in.
You can find the event schedule, athlete information, and details on how to watch through the official Rogue Invitational website.
Enjoy the show.
*Reminder to please ensure you are signing in for classes before attending.
